Linking self- and social control with deviance: Illuminating the structure underlying a general theory of crime and its relation to deviant activity

The present paper operationalizes and empirically tests the most recent theoretical speculations of Hirschi and Gottfredson regarding an individual level characteristic of self-control and its relation to earlier specifications of control theory as well as the literature on personality. Linkages are drawn between their broad delineation of self-control and personal disorders of hyperactivity, impulsivity, attention deficits, and minor conduct problems. Psychologists disagree about whether such disorders represent single or multiple traits and whether both behavioral and cognitive measures can appropriately depict personality characteristics. Employing structural equation techniques, support for several propositions derived from Gottfredson and Hirschi's thesis is found: Self-control subsumes several personality disorders and is significantly comprised by early behavioral indicators of aggression and fighting, is inversely related to other elements of the social bond, is moderately stable over a short period of time, and significantly predicts criminal convictions. However, questions remain regarding the ubiquity of self-control, the magnitude and meaning of stability, and the power of this perspective to explain all forms of self-reported delinquency.     

俄中能源合作的有利因素与不利因素分析

我国石油消费量的50％需要中东供应，但中东地区安全形势并不乐观，时刻威胁着我国的能源安全。对于要摆脱对中东石油的绝对依赖、实现石油来源多样化的中国来说，俄罗斯丰富的能源资源以及稳定的供应能力，颇具吸引力，我国加强同俄罗斯的能源合作既存在有利因素，也存在不利因素。     

论“联俄制日”外交的形成及其对《中俄密约》的影响

19世纪末，面对日本对中国的侵略，李鸿章等人秉承“以夷制夷”的外交思想，采取了“联俄制日”的外交政策，即利用俄国和日本在华利益冲突，使之彼此制约，以达到抵制日本侵略、保护自己的目的。但是，由于清政府的腐朽，“联俄制日”不仅没有达到“制日”的目的，反而被俄所利用，同俄国签订了《中俄密约》，为俄国扩大对华侵略打开了方便之门。     

DOES CRIME JUST MOVE AROUND THE CORNER? A CONTROLLED STUDY OF SPATIAL DISPLACEMENT AND DIFFUSION OF CRIME CONTROL BENEFITS*

Recent studies point to the potential theoretical and practical benefits of focusing police resources on crime hot spots. However, many scholars have noted that such approaches risk displacing crime or disorder to other places where programs are not in place. Although much attention has been paid to the idea of displacement, methodological problems associated with measuring it have often been overlooked. We try to fill these gaps in measurement and understanding of displacement and the related phenomenon of diffusion of crime control benefits. Our main focus is on immediate spatial displacement or diffusion of crime to areas near the targeted sites of an intervention. Do focused crime prevention efforts at places simply result in a movement of offenders to areas nearby targeted sites—“do they simply move crime around the corner”? Or, conversely, will a crime prevention effort focusing on specific places lead to improvement in areas nearby—what has come to be termed a diffusion of crime control benefits? Our data are drawn from a controlled study of displacement and diffusion in Jersey City, New Jersey. Two sites with substantial street‐level crime and disorder were targeted and carefully monitored during an experimental period. Two neighboring areas were selected as “catchment areas” from which to assess immediate spatial displacement or diffusion. Intensive police interventions were applied to each target site but not to the catchment areas. More than 6,000 20‐minute social observations were conducted in the target and catchment areas. They were supplemented by interviews and ethnographic field observations. Our findings indicate that, at least for crime markets involving drugs and prostitution, crime does not simply move around the corner. Indeed, this study supports the position that the most likely outcome of such focused crime prevention efforts is a diffusion of crime control benefits to nearby areas.

论刑事法律全球化时代的"国民不引渡"原则

在刑事法律全球化日趋成为一种发展趋势的今天,如何有效地进行国际刑事司法合作,消除合作中的羁绊,已经成为国际刑法需要认真探讨和研究的重大课题.从保护本国国民的利益出发,不将在外国犯罪的本国国民交给外国审判,或者不让本国国民在异国他乡的监狱中服刑,一直以来都是很多国家的做法.但是"国民不引渡"给国际刑事司法合作的顺利进行带来了难以克服的障碍.因此,新形势下采取新的立法势在必行.     

关于公司法实施中的若干问题

在公司法实施中暴露的主要问题是发起人虚假出资、控制股东行为不规范、公司人格混同及被滥用现象突出。完善公司立法应立足中国国情,统一公司与企业法,重构公司资本制度,降低公司设立门槛,完善公司治理,细化债权人保护规则以增强法的可诉性;在公司司法方面,宜完善司法解释并由最高人民法院公布公司案例,发挥其引导作用;在揭开公司面纱方面尤其应结合中国的国情和司法实践,而不宜机械地照般国外的理论。     

"有数量限制的行政许可"的立法解读及其适用

本文以利益衡量原则为指导来分析《许可法》第57条,试图达到以下三项目的:第一,以学界的共识—第12条第1项属于无数量限制的行政许可,第12条第2项属于有数量限制的行政许可—为前提,通过探讨”行为许可概念的性质来重新界定“有数量限制的行政许可”概念的法律内涵,指出“行为许可的有数量限制性”不必然导致“有数量限制的行政许可”。第二,以法律概念体系的逻辑一致性要求为检验标准,以新的“有数量限制的行政许可”概念为分析工具来探讨第57条的适用事项范围,并解决相应的逻辑矛盾。最后,以前述的分析为理论背景,为第57条的法律适用提出建议。
